Small Human Big Feelings

As a parent, you have a significant impact on how confident and self-assured your child becomes. A variety of affirmation cards for kids are available from Small Human Big Feelings © to support their growth in having a positive view of life. We’ll demonstrate how to use these cards to teach your child the skill of affirming others in this blog post.

Step 1: Pick the Correct Cards

Choosing the appropriate cards for your child is the first step. Make sure to select the affirmation cards that are most suitable for your child’s developmental stage from the box of affirmation cards available at our shop.  Additionally, you can select cards with themes like confidence, kindness, and resilience that are relevant to your child’s hobbies or difficulties.

Step 2: Describe the Concept of Affirmations

Explain to your child what affirmations are and why they’re essential, not only for themselves but also for others, before you begin using the cards. Discussing affirmations and how they may make others feel confident, appreciated, and loved can help you achieve this.

Step 3: Practice Affirming Yourself and Others

It’s right to begin using affirmations with your child after they have a basic understanding of the concept. Before teaching your child to affirm others, encourage them to first affirm themselves. This can be accomplished by having your child and you alternately take turns reading affirmations aloud or by having the children write affirmations for each other and reading them together.

Step 4: Use the Affirmation Cards Regularly

Establish using the affirmation cards as a regular practice for your child. This could occur in everyday conversations, right before bed, or during morning routines. The positive phrases on the affirmation cards should be internalized by your child by having them read them aloud.

Step 5: Encourage Sharing Affirmations

Encourage your child to share affirmations with others, such as a teacher, friend, or sibling. Your child’s interactions with others will be strengthened and they will learn to have empathy for others.

Example: Let’s say your child is using the Small Human Big Feelings affirmation © cards for kindness. You could encourage them to affirm a sibling by saying, “You are a kind and thoughtful person and I am grateful to have you in my life.” Your kid might also create a letter of support for a teacher that says something like, “I appreciate your patience and tolerance constantly. You make a big difference in my life.”

In conclusion, using the affirmation cards from Small Human Big Feelings © is a fun and engaging technique to aid children in gaining self-confidence and mastering the art of affirming others. By including affirmations in your child’s daily routine, you can support their confidence-building efforts and help them foster a positive atmosphere for both themselves and others.
